Event Submission Guidelines

Send your information, including a logo, a brief description of the event, the age groups that are welcome to participate, entry requirements, judging classifications, contact information, website and a picture or two that we might include. Send the material to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and we will do our best to include your event. Please note: you must be a registered user to SVN Student Filmmaking, so take a minute to register at the top of any page.

Directly related to filmmaking. All events must be directly related to filmmaking and relevant to filmmakers. Examples of acceptable event-types include: short training courses, conferences or lectures, exhibitions or markets, film festivals, social/networking events, and filmmaking competitions. Events that are not related to filmmaking will not be listed.

Event Duration. We can only list events which run for up to one month (30 days). If your event runs multiple times over the year you are free to submit each instance as a separate event. On-going events are not eligible for listing.

No film premieres. Sorry, but these are only of interest to a very small number of people and there are just too many to list. Film screening events which incorporate interviews or panels with recognizable industry figures are fine.

Genuine events. All events must be genuine, legal, and not intended to deceive or mislead attendees for any purpose. Note that SVN Student Filmmaking considers 'film festivals' which do not screen films to the public to be scams, and as such, they are not eligible for listing.

Screenplay Competitions. Due to the high number of scams, screenplay competitions are not eligible for listing unless they are verifiably associated with a government film agency or high-profile company in the media sector.

Events must be submitted in English. SVN Student Filmmaking is an English-language site. All events must be submitted in English, regardless of where they will take place.

Keep it Local. SVN Student Filmmaking is more than happy for you to submit an event for local filmmakers in your area. However, when entering the details please keep in mind that SVN Student Filmmaking speaks to an international audience. Make sure that you are clear about locations, restrictions, and any other relevant information.

No Film Festival 'Call for Entries' Notices! Please do not post festival 'calls for entry' notices here. Our events area is for the promotion of the event itself, not the activities which lead up to the event. Any calls for entry should be posted in the film festivals group in the Message Boards area of the site.

Submission does not guarantee listing. Listing of an event is completely at the discretion of filmmaking.net. We reserve the right to edit your submission for appropriate content and/or length. Submissions will not appear on the site until they have been approved by a SVNStudent Filmmaking editor.

No Spam/No Robots. You may not use this system to post advertisements for anything other than your filmmaking event. Additionally, we do not allow event posting from automated processes, or a process which is not served from www.svnfilm.com
